Quick Transmigration Cannon Fodder's Record of Counterattacks

Chapter 959: Crushed the Pink Bubbles

Xuan Xiaotian’s interaction with Shangguan Qingrou seemed quite like modern dates. In plain terms, Xuan Xiaotian was currently pursuing Shangguan Qingrou.

Xuan Xiaotian was using the method Shangguan Qingrou liked to pursue her. Shangguan Qingrou was a woman of the modern era, so she didn’t really believe in the Confucian moral injunctions for women. She felt no pressure at all when going out to play with a man.

At the start Shangguan Qingrou was still bickering a lot with Xuan Xiaotian since she still held a grudge about when he said her songs offended public morals.

But Xuan Xiaotian often took her out to play and sometimes would even give her a little surprise, so she gradually came to feel that this person wasn’t bad. Although his way of speaking was a little too flirtatious, it was still a lot better than the unreadable, cold, and moody Xuan Hongyu.

Compared to Xuan Hongyu who’d abruptly say that he’d kill her, Xuan Xiaotian was way more considerate.

His only flaw was that he liked to take advantage of her too much. He was always saying things that made her heart pound and made her blush.

Every time the two of them headed out, Ning Shu would thicken her skin to follow. Of course, she didn’t ruin their atmosphere and just followed from a distance away without showing herself.

Ning Shu could sense that there were still hidden guards following Xuan Xiaotian. They were probably there to protect Xuan Xiaotian.

She didn’t know what Xuan Hongyu had said to Xuan Xiaotian, but Xuan Xiaotian no longer had his hidden guards attack her again.

So Ning Shu just followed with the attitude of watching a show. Whenever Xuan Xiaotian headed out with Shangguan Qingrou, Ning Shu would record the process of all these honeysweet dates down for Xuan Hongyu to read.

Every time Xuan Hongyu read about them, his expression was calm, very calm. Calm to the point it was abnormal.

Following that, Xuan Hongyu started waiting at a teahouse near the director’s residence. As soon and Xuan Xiaotian headed out with Shangguan Qingrou, he would immediately follow.

So the original, sweet two-people date instantly became a three-person trip. The entire time, Xuan Hongyu’s expression would be very cold and the black aura that emitted off him completely crushed the pink bubbles.

Xuan Xiaotian fanned his fan, still looking confident and at ease as always. However, the depths of his peach flower eyes contained a hint of darkness.

Meanwhile, Xuan Hongyu’s gaze was always on Shangguan Qingrou. He completely ignored Xuan Xiaotian, whose facial color was conspicuously darkening.

Ning Shu watched from a nearby area. These two brothers were about to rip into each other over a woman.

It was sure Mary Sue enough. If Shangguan Qingrou was someone with ability and peerless talent, then it’d be very normal that she attracted men’s gazes. However, Shangguan Qingrou didn’t really have ability. If dancing Gangnam style and being able to sing the little apple song counted as ability, she truly had nothing left to say.

The noble daughters of this era had a lot more dignity and grace than Shangguan Qingrou, which made Shangguan Qingrou seem a little overly lively, to the point she sometimes seemed a little crazy.

It was also because Xuan Xiaotian became emperor in the end and didn’t take any concubines that Shangguan Qingrou got to live in extreme comfort. Otherwise, with Shangguan Qingrou’s personality, she definitely wouldn’t be able to beat the women of this era who paid particular attention to this era’s rules.

That was why it was so important to marry a good man.

Shangguan Qingrou was always talking about self-dignity and self-love, that she only belonged to herself and not anyone else.

She believed herself to have advanced ideologies of the modern era, but in reality, she was just like the women of this era. A wife’s honor was due to a husband’s nobility, women relied on men to get to a high position and live a happy life.

Shangguan Qingrou was also relying on Xuan Xiaotian’s existence. All she had to rely on was Xuan Xiaotian’s love for her.

She was also a woman that relied on a man’s doting affection.

Shangguan Qingrou was very displeased with Xuan Hongyu’s arrival, especially when she saw that Xuan Hongyu was looking at her in that frightening manner. Her hair rose on end from discomfort.

In short, the atmosphere around the three was very strange and stiff, not wonderful at all.

Shangguan Qingrou was so angry that she directly turned and left. The moment she left, the other two men followed her. Wherever she went, those two men followed.

Xuan Hongyu and Xuan Xiaotian showed brotherly respect for each other on the surface, one greeting ‘Third Brother’ and the other greeting ‘Fifth Brother,’ but in private, they were making all sorts of attacks.

The atmosphere of the trip wasn’t very good, so of course they couldn’t continue with it. Shangguan Qingrou could only return to her residence.

The brothers stood at the door and watched as Shangguan Qingrou headed back inside. Then the atmosphere between the two instantly changed.
